CURRENT MISSION

To meet everyday people who do extrodinary things and learn from them

ABOUT ME

I've been to every state in the US except 2. Somehow managed to make it from Costa Rica to Argentina traveling by foot, bus, train, boat with 2 pair of pants, 2 shirts, and a handful of Spanish words. Pero, ahora yo hablo espanol:)

I'm a sleepdreamer, daytime doer, writer, performer, can make a mean chai latte, have horrible jokes but the best timing, have an odd disdain for umbrellas, a technological dummy, a cookie monster, and I'm an advocate for hugs and highfives.

PHILOSOPHY

When you have nothing left to burn you have to set yourself on fire

Be happy being...

The greatest tragedy of all is not the brutality of the evil people, but rather the silence of the good people-- Martin Luther King, Jr.

We all have something to learn from one another no matter how insignificant or massive it may seem. I look forward in the journey of learning more about myself by better understanding how others view the world.
